Chromium Reveal New Single & Artwork For Upcoming Album


The start of 2011 has been quite a stellar one for internationally renowned hard rock/metal group Chromium. Just having completed the crowd vocals for their upcoming third release, Chromium is on a path for great things this year. Fans got a first glimpse and listen to the new album this past week and the reaction was astounding.

Another noticeable and unbelievable aspect of of the the upcoming album is that world renowned artist and bassist for Grammy nominated band Killswitch Engage, Mike D'Antonio, had his hand in developing the artwork for the album. Mike D brought a totally different edge to the band's image with his masterful skill in the artwork for the album.



My Perfection, the first single off the album, has been premiered on the band's official MySpace page and fans worldwide have been praising the new sound of the band. The song will be hitting radio airwaves soon so keep your ears pricked! Produced by Chromium's very own Jared Gunston, the album promises to surpass any expectations and please fans around the world with its extensive attention to detail and brutal power behind the music. The introduction of Justin Du Preez on vocals has really brought a powerful and clear approach to the already unique sound of the band.
